    Summary

    When Stratt opens her eyes to the achingly, depressingly familiar Hail Mary crew coma bag, when she becomes aware of tubes and medical equipment and robotic arms, she should be confused, or angry, or terrified. Instead, the only thought she can manage is yes, this seems fair.

    Stratt wakes up on the Hail Mary in Ilyukhina's spot.

    Summary

    Disaster strikes the Hail Mary on its way back to Earth. The taumoeba escape their breeding tanks, and make it to the fuel lines. Stranded in space just outside the Tau Ceti system, Dr Ryland Grace can't do anything. He can't go save Rocky, he can't go save Earth. Exhausted, out of options, and distraught, he fills the ship with nitrogen, and takes his final breath.
    Next thing he knows, his eyes flutter open in his San Francisco apartment. It's a year before ArcLight touches down on Earth, but he remembers the Petrova Task Force.
    He's not the only one.

    OR: Time-Travel Fix-It AU but it's not just Grace who came back in time.

    Summary

    "I really can't help it. I dissect him and turn him around in my head, over and over, constantly. He's fascinating to me. If I could spend the rest of my life - realistically, not that long of a period, but I'll take what I can get - studying him, I would. But I've unfortunately got other matters to attend to."

    Ryland Grace, biologist first and human second, is absolutely fascinated by Rocky, and how almost-human he seems. Rocky is also arguably fascinated, but he's far less blatant than Grace is about it.
    These are not really studies.

    Summary

    “Grace can feel song, question?” Rocky asked, slower than usual. The cooing had lulled him, too.

    I… Maybe? Yeah,” Grace whispered, and Rocky had to focus to understand the slurring.

    “Humans can feel sound, question?”

    Grace huffed a small laugh. “Sometimes, yeah. For example, when the sound is… very low and loud, we can feel it in our chests.

    “Song is neither low nor loud.” That would have an entirely different effect.

    I know. I can still feel it, I think. It’s strange.

    “Good strange, question?”

    Good strange, yeah.

    Grace could feel sound. Grace could feel Rocky’s songs.

    Hmm.

    Rocky discovers nature's laws aren't as inflexible as they'd thought. He puts this to good use.

    Summary

    If this record is a confession, let it be a complete one: the human-thinking-machine Rocky was gifted has everything on it. With the aid of the device Rocky had made back aboard the Mary that translates light on Grace’s human-visual displays to texture on Rocky’s Eridian-sonar display, accessing all of humanity’s combined wisdom is as easy as making a database query.

    Rocky consumes approximately 1,600 Earth-hours of human pornography before the ship’s engines cease to function, leaving it dead and stranded in space. Again.
